Renewable Energy Consumption and Carbon Emissions: Evidence from an Oil-Rich Economy

Renewable Energy Consumption, Economic Growth and Co2 Emissions: Evidence from Selected Mena Countries

This paper uses panel cointegration techniques to examine the causal relationship between renewable energy consumption, economic growth and CO2 emissions for a group of 12 MENA countries covering the annual period 1975-2008. The Granger-causality results indicate that there is no causal relationship between these variables in short run except a unidirectional causality running from renewable en...

Carbon Footprint Emissions and their Relationship with Energy Consumption in Yadavaran Oil Field in Khuzestan Province, Iran

Background and Aim: Carbon footprint is an important health, safety and environmental issue that has received much attention by many researchers and studied during the last decade. This research was conducted to assess the carbon footprint and investigate the relationship between carbon dioxide emissions released in the atmosphere and energy consumption in Yadavaran oil field, Iran in 1396. Ma...

Economy Development, Energy Consumption and Carbon Dioxide Emissions of China’s Textile Industry

Textile industry has been playing an important role in the global economy development, international business and trade. In China, textile industry is a traditional pillar industry and an important livelihood industry. The proportion of textile industrial output on GDP has risen to approximately 7% in recent five years. Currently, the ever increasing amount of carbon dioxide emissions, which ha...

Causality among Carbon Emissions, Energy Consumption and Growth in India

This study attempts to investigate the long-run Granger causality relationship between energy consumption, carbon dioxide emission and economic growth in India over the period 1971-2007. The augmented Dickey– Fuller test (ADF), Phillips-Perron test (PP) and KPSS test are used to test for Granger causality in cointegration models which take account of the stochastic properties of the variables. ...
